The Trace Chair is a minimalist stacking side chair that pairs a thin powder coated steel frame with leather seat and back panels. The back and seat are stretched between the frame's slender rails, creating a sling-like form that flexes gently and reads almost like a line drawing. Straight legs and a squared silhouette keep the look disciplined and modern.
Offered in black leather or warm chestnut leather on a black frame, the Trace adds a quietly luxurious note to cafes, wine bars and modern restaurants without visual bulk. It stacks for storage, is in stock in our quick ship program, and pairs with the Trace Lounge Chair for lounge areas.
The Trace's steel frame is welded, not bolted, for lasting rigidity. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards. It stacks for storage, and ganging hardware may be available depending on the chair. We do not stock stacking carts, but they can be custom made on request. It ships fully assembled from the factory and carries a 3-year frame structural warranty and a 1-year finish and upholstery warranty from shipment.
Plan about 24" per seat at dining tables. Our restaurant seating layout guide covers spacing and aisle clearances.
Stocked finishes: Black frame with black leather, or black frame with chestnut leather. Minimums apply for any finishes that are not stocked; please contact your local rep for details.
Model code: TRAC-SC
